Reminds me of a Mutt & Jeff strip from the 1970s. Jeff complained that all his socks had holes in them. Mutt decided to play a joke on him, telling him: “The hole is on the outside, Jeff. Try turning them inside out. Maybe the inside doesn’t have a hole.” Mutt is laughing silently as Jeff takes his advice. Then he’s dumbfounded when it works.

It’s a permanent fix as long as he wears black socks…

Nelson won’t have to wear socks as long as Grampa has enough marker.

now what’s the plan to get the marker’s ink OFF Nelson’s foot? (aftershave or hairspray)

Good thing Nelson was wearing black sox. I have to use white-out when I get a hole, and that stuff’s getting harder and harder to find!

It will be interesting when Opal finds out about this. :)

Before he turned gray, he used to do that to his head.

When Nelson gets to be older, Earl will be teaching him how to “spray on hair.”

I just spray paint my feet black instead of socks. A lot less laundry.

Sometimes I think Earl just might be a bad influence on his grandson.

Why would he want to remove the ink. He’ll probably wear those socks again.

Now all he has to do is line it up next time. I have to admit, Earl may be a genius, even if would be on a Bizzaro World.
